Option 1: BSI will provide you with a development kit for $599.00 to chemically process your CR-39 particle track detectors. You will need to separately purchase your own sodium hydroxide, and to follow the heating instructions carefully using the hot plate that we provide while following our safety instructions carefully.

Option 2:  BSI will sell you a reconditioned optical microscope with an ocular camera and a computer interface for $1,299.  This includes the cost of a new lap-top, loaded with the imaging and image analysis software that you will need to understand your results. Please see the image of this DIY system, below.  Please note that that the actual reconditioned optical microscope may vary, but it will be fully adequate to support your DIY activities. This system will be able to assist the user by counting the number of tracks in a reference area.  For an additional price, BSI can provide advanced AI-based analysis tools which differentiate between different particle tracks, particle arrival angles, and particle energies, and to provide displays showing the distribution of these traits within the observed particle tracks.  Please contact BSI if you would like us to work with you to develop custom analysis software for your specific research applications.
